"But the kids never asked to be born. As parents, you are essentially forcing life upon another being."
This is illogical. They can't ask to be born because they are not born yet. In your argument, the arrow of time is pointing in the wrong direction.
And the parents are not forcing life upon a being like some sort of genitals-based Dr Frankenstein rigmarole - they are creating the being.
- gnosis 14y ago"They can't ask to be born because they are not born yet." That's the point. They don't have a choice in the matter. The choice is entirely the parents' (assuming it's not an accident or rape).
- quasque 14y agoYou are trying to support your point by arguing against a tautology. This doesn't make any sense.
